Lost online game data

Greetings,

A message came up noting my Mozilla Firefox seemed to be running a bit slow, and suggested refreshing. Unfortunately I wasn't aware it deleted a save file on an online game I have been playing. I'm not exactly sure if the game saves to a cache or exactly how the particular games save file operates, although I am sure it has been deleted. How could I get it back? The refresh did create a folder titled 'Old Firefox Data' so I was wondering if it was able to be recovered. If you need a link to the game I could send one,

Thank you

You flash game save files are stored here: %appdata%\Macromedia\FlashPlayer\#SharedObjects\<SOME RANDOM LETTERS AND NUMBERS>\<Your game's domain>

Although I am not sure if they are still there :-/

Look on your desktop. Do you see a folder called; Old Firefox?
